Bought with a Price

1 Corinthians · Piano Blues

[Intro] Not everything lawful can carry me whole. I will not bow to an appetite's throne. [Verse 1] The body is more than a hunger that fades; it belongs to the Lord who rose from the grave. The power that lifted the Son from the dead will call these bones from their dust again. [Refrain] Bought with a price, I am not my own. A temple of breath, a Spirit-filled home. In body and spirit, in secret and light, I glorify God; I was bought with a price. [Verse 2] These hands are the members of Christ in the world; this life cannot join what dishonors the Lord. The one joined to Jesus is one spirit with him; so flee what would wound what his presence has filled. [Bridge] No bargain with darkness. No throne for desire. The Holy Ghost dwells here, keep clear the altar. [Refrain - final] Bought with a price, I am not my own. A temple of breath, a Spirit-filled home. The risen Lord claims every pulse of this life. I glorify God; I was bought with a price.
